Tips for a great virtual onboarding experience:
The goal of virtual employee onboarding is the same as in-person onboarding. It helps your new employee get familiar with your company, makes them feel welcomed and included, facilitates connections with the team and provides them with the tools and training they need to start making an impact sooner.
The only difference is that virtual employee onboarding is accomplished through video conferences, webinars, pre-recorded videos, text resources, instant messenger and interactive online training that new hires can access through their desktop, laptop or mobile device.
Gamify your onboarding sessions with polls, mini-quizzes, Zoom breakout rooms and ice breaker games to make onboarding information stick.
